Re: How to format date with DayOfWeek ?

Hello.


Script for the report

procedure MemoDayOfWeekOnAfterData(Sender: TfrxComponent);
var
       s: string;
       d: integer;                                   
begin
       s := MemoDayOfWeek.Text;
       s := ReplaceStr(s, #13#10, '');                                                                     
       if ValidDate(s) then 
       begin                 
               d := DayOfWeek(StrToDate(s));
               case d of
                       1: s := 'Sunday';                         
                       2: s := 'Monday';
                       3: s := 'Tuesday';
                       4: s := 'Wednesday';
                       5: s := 'Thursday';
                       6: s := 'Friday';
                       7: s := 'Saturday';
                       else s := '';                                                     
               end;                          
                 
       end;
       MemoDayOfWeek.Text := s;

Re: How to format date with DayOfWeek ?

Hi Agusecc, Dmitry,
An alternative might be to use a calculated field to show the day of the week.  Then the calculated field can be used in your report just like any other data fields.
Please see the attached as a simple example.
Regards,
Derek.
